The Hurriyat leadership has termed Modi government’s move of granting voting rights to Indian citizens residing in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir as another attempt of political disempowerment and marginalization of Muslim majority in the held territory.
In a joint statement in Srinagar, APHC leaders including Khadim Hussain and Syed Sibte Shabbir Qummi said the only purpose of such colonial moves by the Modi regime is to bring BJP to power and install a Hindu Chief Minister in IIOJK.
Earlier, in a message released from Tihar Jail New Delhi, Senior Vice Chairman of All Parties Hurriyat Conference Shabbir Ahmed Shah urged Kashmiris to ensure unity in their ranks to thwart Bharatiya Janata Party-hatched conspiracies against them.
Meanwhile, occupation authorities have suspended nine government teachers for not hoisting Indian flag in their schools in Kishtwar district on the Indian Independence Day.
On the other hand, a prisoner, Muni Mohammad, lodged at Kot Bhlawal Jail in Jammu died after the Indian police, dreaded National Investigation Agency and jail authorities severely harassed and intimidated him during interrogation in the jail.
